The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) is contemplating adoption of a technology called OpenGIS® Catalogue Services - ebRIM profile of CSW (ebRIM). OGC invites public comment on a candidate specification that will soon be presented for approval by OGC members as an OpenGIS(R) Application Profile. The purpose of this Request for Public Comment (RFPC) is to obtain comments on the proposal for technologies and needed interfaces required for OpenGIS® Catalogue Services - ebRIM profile of CSW (ebRIM). Documentation of this draft specification can be downloaded here:

This document defines an application profile of an OGC Catalogue service; it is primarily based on the HTTP binding (the CSW part) described in Clause 11 of the OGC Catalogue Services Specification, version 2.0 (OGC 04-021r3). The profile constrains the usage of several base specifications and introduces some additional search, retrieval, and transaction capabilities.
